And now, according to the website Royal Pingdom, there were 1.97 billion people surfing the web last year. Pretty crazy to think about isn't it?
Online users are now spending about 14 hours a week, on average - the same amount of time that they spend watching TV - surfing the Internet according to Media Life.
